A new protest rally of Bulgarian stock-farmers is expected to be held in front of the Agriculture Ministry around noon Wednesday.
The farmers insist that the government does not stop the state aid per litre of milk, and pays all the subsidies for the last three months, Darik Radio reported.
The farmers have said they will organize a protest every Wednesday from now on until their demands are fulfilled.
The Branch Union of the dairy farmers alerts that the data for the number of the cows that the administration has differs from reality.
They claim that out of hundreds of cows only a few are listed in the administration database.
In the farmers' words, this is a serious issue, because in this way they cannot get the state's subsidy for all the cows they have.
